Whether you have seen the James Bond films or not (and we hope you have), you surely know of them, particularly their subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) sexual one-liners and the famous men who have played the 007 role. Needless to say, we couldn't help but be a bit “shaken” when we heard the news that noted Hollywood auction house Profiles in History, run by Joe Maddalena, had accumulated the most comprehensive collection of movie posters, stills, lobby cards, scripts and other ephemera from all of our favorite Bond flicks. The auction will come in line with the 50th anniversary of the James Bond franchise, and will take place Dec. 15 and 16 in Los Angeles, with a movie poster collection that is estimated to bring in more than $200,000 alone.
